DEPARTMENT OF M.L.T & MEDICAL MICROBIOLOGY, UCBMSH, DEHRADUN

Students of M.Sc. Microbiology (IInd Sem.), B.Sc. Medical Microbiology(2nd & 3rd Year) and B.M.L.T(2nd & 3rd Year) from Uttaranchal (P.G) College of Biomedical Sciences & Hospitals participated in the one day seminar on the occasion of World Biomedical Laboratory Science Day on 15th April. Seminar was organized by all India Medical Laboratory Technologist Association (AIMLTA), State Unit, Chandigarh proposed to held its XIth Chandigarh Chapter cum Scientific Seminar at Bhargava Auditorium, PGIMER, Chandigarh.

As due to emerging advancement in the field of Biomedical Laboratory Science, MLT& Microbiology students as well as medical technologists are strived to maintain excellence in performance. The seminar was very essential to acquire the updating skills and knowledge and professionals expertise by attending this type of symposia and scientific seminar on time to time. Which will be very effective for students as well as for faculty.

The clinical laboratory professional is an indispensable partner in providing patient care and making direct improvements in the lives of patients, in the maintenance of the public health, and in the effectiveness of individuals health care providers. Clinical laboratory services provide the information required by a physician to start, adjust and also to stop a course of treatment.

Laboratory quality management plans with pre-analytic, analytic and post analytic components are key elements in ensuring patient safety. Medical laboratory professionals should be encouraged to place more focus on the best possible quality and clinical value of laboratory diagnostics and hence ensure a safe and quality patient care and management.

The developments and progress in the field of Medicine including Drug Discovery, Personalized Medicine, Preventive Medicine, Gene therapy cannot be thought of without the applications of molecular clinical informatics.

Generally speaking, it is believed that the application of bioinformatics tools and techniques in the field of modern Medical sciences will provide benefits to patients care enormously as we move towards the era of personalized medicine.

Iron deficiency anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough healthy red blood cells. Iron help make red blood cells. When our body does not have enough iron, it will make fewer red blood cells or RBCs that are too small. This is called iron deficiency anaemia.
